The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, at its meeting today, endorsed a decision to cancel payment of bonuses to ministers by the end of the year. Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal made this statement at a briefing on the outcomes of the Government sitting. 

"Ministers have refused their wage bonuses. The issue of incentive payments in political posts will be considered on the basis of the yearly work. And we will decide through public talk whether the ministers and politicians deserve bonuses," the Prime Minister said.

According to the Head of Government, the ministers will receive salaries not exceeding 5 average wages and the statutory bonuses.

"We have also decided that the intensity allowance may not exceed 30%," Denys Shmyhal underscored.
